This lipstick is packaged in a clear square tube with an accurate shade indicator on the bottom. I have Romance, which is a creamy nude with a mauve tone. I like to think of this shade as a more modern (and wearable) 1960s “mod” lip colour, and I will wear this with tons of black eye makeup :) The lipstick has a very creamy texture upon application, but after a while it becomes more of a dry feel on my lips, though it is not uncomfortable, and this lipstick lasts a long time. It kind of smells like olive oil, which I suppose is better than the medicinal or paint scented lipsticks I’ve experienced.
